To Enclose My Balcony With Windows Or Not?

[ynove 0]

Any tips on whether I should enclose my balcony with windows? It currently just has grilles.

I already have full sliding doors separating my living room from my balcony.

Would like to add windows to my balcony so that I can extend living room space whenever needed without aircon escaping.

Am i able to add windows to existing window grilles? Thinking it would be good to prevent burglary. But having grilles also means the view is slightly blocked, a bit claustrophobic. Having just windows alone seems nice.

What do you guys think?

I am in similar situation as you. I have decided to retain my balcony for time being.

If u decide to install windows then I think should remove sliding doors cos as you say will be claustrophobic.
